Hi ladies…

so this year I've barely had any menstrual cycles maybe 4 or 5 at the most… so about 3 weeks ago my body decided to have what it appear to be a regular period! And just 3 weeks late I'm spotting again… I don't what to make of it🙄 Are any of you lovely ladies going through it or went through it ?! & should I be worried?!

oh I'm 46 years old by the way! & past year has been really crazy for me emotionally I guess I'm starting menopause or peri 😢😢😢 it's been horrible ladies😬😬😬😢

    Your situation sounds like a lot of women's situation on here. Your best bet is to see your gyno. Hope everything turns out well for you!

    Hi, it's normal to have spotting and short periods on and off while you're transitioning into the next phase of perimenopause. I wouldn't worry much however, if you continue spotting for more than 10 days, then see your gynecologist.

    This isn't uncommon in perimenopause.  Cycles become irratic because the follicule doesn't hold or act normally.  Don't be suprised if your next on is late.

      Well yes because I did have ovaries out due to family history and all that, there was nothing wrong but I did it for preventative measures. The spotting prior to op did go on for some time, I did have a transvaginal scan and everything seemed OK. The spotting did get me down because how long it went on for, but some women do experience this as they enter menopause xx
